Today I did the same thing got her just a breakfast biscuits that's two of them cuz you can buy one and get one another one for a dollar and I stopped and got the receipt so then I came back and I dropped off the food and I was looking at the receipt so I did a customer satisfaction survey.

Now since I did it I am now permitted to buy one item and get the same item for free as equal price. So I went to the McDonald's deals menu and looked at what they are offering and they are also offering buy one get one free so in other words I could buy four Big Macs with cheese for $5.29 for the first two and the other two I get free so you're looking at with tax $11.48 for four McDonald's Big Macs and if you divide by four you comes out to $2.87 each which normally they're $5.29 each.


So if you had like three friends over and you wanted McDonald's there you go. Now I don't know what you do about shakes and fries but hey the main meal is the burger. Or you could order all four and stuff your face for lunch and microwave the other two for dinner
Mickey D's chow is cheap for a reason. I wouldn't eat a Big Mac if they paid me $5.29 to eat it.

I mean seriously if you eat it once in a while you will probably be OK, but, just for example the book "Supersize Me" details what's wrong with eating this glop all the time.

I have the McD's app, every day there is a buy one breakfast sandwich, get one free, then for the lunch menu at 11am there is a buy one sandwich such as a quarter pounder with cheese or a big mac, then you get another one free.

I believe that in order to get another item off the deals in the app that you have to wait 15 minutes between ordering.

Burger King also does deals in their app. Last week my daughter and I were out, there were two breakfast biscuits, one hash brown and one coffee for $6 which is fairly cheap, I think one sandwich is about $5.

Of course BK changed their deal menu. Today is Whopper Wednesday, $3 whoppers.

Not seeing any breakfast deals, for lunch it's buy one original chicken sandwich, get one free.
